How Could You Ever Know?
I know how poorly I will handle it when my dad dies. It nearly broke me completely when my mom died. Possessions aren’t the same as people though. But, it might hurt about the same. I have an emotional attachment to quite a few of my items. I even have an attachment to my box Continue reading

And… About Face
Over the course of the last decade or so, I’ve changed my mind on a number of issues. The list would stretch for forever. ~J. Lyst We’ll just say it’s a lot! Continue reading

It’s An Every/Other Day Thing
I am very shy and uncomfortable around others–in person. Because I have hearing problems, I miss a large chunk of what people are saying in front of me if they turn away. … or if I’m over two feet away.

I Can’t Be Alone In This…

I have several medical impediments that restrain what I can do physically as well as mentally. So, when I put in serious effort to do things around the Continue reading

“Do You Think I’m Fat?”
Today’s inappropriate title and resulting blog post have been inspired by what my innocent eyeballs and ears… took in. Yes, inappropriate. You have been warned. And I’m… still laughing. This has got to be one of the worse questions to answer, but I was pretty tactless when I was asked that years ago. I’m technically Continue reading

Thumbedy
Did I break my thumb? Did I strain it?? It has been a MONTH now and my thumb still hurts! I’ve no clue how to deal with this… I’m using my right hand to use the space bar and spacing my fingers differently so I don’t have to use that thumb as much. Next week, Continue reading
